Hi Gene,

You should have a sticker in your double wardrobe closet that states the Dupont black paint code. Take the code to your Dupont auto paint store and tell them to make you up a few spray cans of paint to respray the affected parts.

OR:

Go to Home depot and get Krylon satin black or semi gloss spray cans to do the job.

The sun takes a toll on the exterior plastic parts and paint.

You may want to give FW a call 800-322-8216. Have your FW ID # handy if you do. My roof vents are unpainted white. I placed black Maxair covers over all three to give me the ability to leave the vents open while in storage or during any weather while we're camping. They are shinny and are not painted. My Sat antenna ( manual Winegard ) is unpainted white. My a/c shrouds are black ( plastic of some sort, I think ) and are faded. Please let me know if FW has any suggestions on possibly painting them.

Mine are factory Black and have stayed shinny. You may want to buy new ones. They are about $25-35. Sure will look better IMO.
